Senior Technical Recruiter - Startup Hiring

About CareerXperts

Building teams that build the future — that’s what we do. At CareerXperts, we work with founders who are chasing audacious goals and solving hard problems. We help them find the talent they didn’t think they could get, before their competitors even know they need it. Think of us as the talent partner who doesn’t just “fill roles,” but helps architect the next breakout startup.

We’re in the business of momentum. For founders. For teams. For careers. And we’re just getting started.

About the Role

Technical Recruiter

This isn’t your run-of-the-mill recruiting job. This is matchmaking at its highest level — high-stakes, high-speed, and high-impact. You’ll be a talent detective, a storyteller, a strategist, and sometimes even a therapist (founders are people too). You’ll dive deep into ecosystems, learn what makes teams tick, and make connections that change the course of companies — and careers.

You’ll work directly with startup founders, hiring managers, and senior talent across industries, geeking out on product roadmaps, compensation design, and culture fit. Some days you’ll be pitching a rocketship to a world-class backend engineer. Other days, you’ll be drawing org charts from scratch for a stealth-stage startup. Every day, you’ll be moving the needle in a space that doesn’t wait for anyone.

What You’ll Actually Do

• Own full-cycle hiring for high-growth startups — from first briefing to final close.
• Partner with founders and senior leaders to deeply understand their hiring DNA.
• Source top-tier talent using every tool in your kit — LinkedIn, GitHub, Twitter, referrals, the works.
• Craft compelling outreach that doesn’t sound like a recruiter wrote it.
• Run sharp, efficient interview processes that close fast and close well.
• Create hiring playbooks and repeatable processes that scale.
• Act as the eyes and ears of the market — share intel on comp trends, talent movement, and what candidates really want.
• Think like an advisor, not an agent — every role you close should feel like the start of something, not the end.

You Might Be a Fit If You

• Have 3–6 years of experience in tech recruiting — agency or in-house — and still love it.
• Speak fluent engineering — you don’t need to write code, but you know your backend from your front-end and can talk about it without blinking.
• Have a knack for reading people, asking the right questions, and building real relationships.
• Are relentless when it comes to sourcing — you don't wait for great profiles, you hunt them.
• Can manage multiple searches without dropping the ball — you’re calm in chaos and sharp under pressure.
• Write well, pitch smart, and know how to make people feel like you’ve got their back.
• Are genuinely curious about startups, founders, products, and what makes people tick.
• Want to grow — fast — and eventually lead a practice or a vertical.

The Good, The Tough, and the Truth

You’ll work on searches that stretch your mind and your sourcing chops. You’ll hear "we need them yesterday" a lot. You’ll be the reason a startup hires their next 10x engineer or a candidate finds the role that changes everything. And you’ll do it all with a team that’s intense, collaborative, and deeply proud of the work we do.

This is not a role for someone who needs a rulebook. It’s for someone who wants to write one.
